    Hi Tim

    The original armourment was a single bow mounted 40 mm Bofors gun and a twin 20 mm Oerlikon cannon aft. These along with 4 deck mounted torpedos.

    There is a lot of deck detail in the Slec kit with lockers mounts etc..

    Thanks Neil

    Battlecrafts look superb, but unfortunately the Slec Perkasa is at an odd scale of 1:40 โ˜น๏ธ

    Morning all

    I am building the 31 inch Perkasa from Slec in the UK and know that in the past Shapeways sold 3D printed deck guns etc... Does anyone know if any other companies produce these since Shapeways closed down?

    Any direction would be greatly welcomed

    Hi all

    Does anyone have a plan for a simple boat storage / transport case. I am never sure on what to do with the open side, hinge, slide in etc...?

    In a weak moment I bought a partially completed Model Slipway Sentinel that needs work. Does anyone know where I can source a copy of the original plan / instruction booklet to help with the refurb?

    Any help would be welcomed
